MemberJust ordered a set of smoked side repeaters from http://www.body-kit.co.uk/section.php/880/1/lighting. They are part number FO-FST6-3100. I ordered them with the amber bulbs which all in all cost £23. Not too bad. Now just have to wait for the arrival and hopefully they will fit straight on, should do.
MemberI’ve just been doing some research and aparently they Golf Mk4 don’t fit the face lift Leons. Although Mk6 Fiesta ones do. Looking at a website that does smoked ones for around £16.50, plus £3 for silver bulbs. I’ll check if Ford do them, if not the website it is.
MemberWill do mate. I’ll definately be doing it, just got to buy them and get the amber bulbs to go with them. Hopefully get some silvertec ambers for them so no amber shown.
MemberI may have to go and do a search on Friday afternoon when i’m off work. Maybe go to VW for part numbers and prices.
MemberHi there. Welcome to the forum. Car is looking nice. What front bumper has that got?

They will tell you what will be the best option for your car, for example a new Sachs uprated clutch with single or dual mass flywheel. Either way you will probably need an uprated clutch as the torque of the engine will determine the rate of clutch needed.
MemberIn the mean time before it is sorted, just open the door before you drive off and watch the water drain from the door, this will stop it leaking into the car.
MemberThe previous owner of mine didn’t reaaly care for the car as much as I do, now I need to sort all the bird crap etch marks in the laquer. Got me a super fine tip artist brush, a touch up paint pen, so when it’s a bit warmer I’ll try and sort out all the little marks and scratches on mine.
MemberI did too, until I fitted the rear wiper, made the car look so much different and improved and the wiper is much better. Fronts is obviously an owner opinion but I know I like mine. Apparently you can get the front wipers from GSF also for £1 less. Probably the cost of the little sticker that comes on the VW ones to tell you the wiper needs changing. Although I picked the sticker off anyway as it started to turn yellow after about a week!
MemberRear wiper was about £35 i think, front wipers were around £24.
MemberI got these parts from Skoda…
1. Wiper arm – 6Y9 955 704A
2. Wiper blade – 6Y0 955 425
3. Cap – 6Y0 955 435Also fitted aero wipers to the front, really suits the Leon. VW part number…
Conversion – 1J2 998 002Adam
MemberJust in case you need it mate, I got some Yellow T-Cut you can have. I used it when I had a yellow MG ZR, works on all yellows too. If you want it, let me know.
MemberMost likely under the car, near the fuel tank.
MemberHave you got one yet. Another thing you can do is get a Green Cotton Panel filter or K+N panel filter. Made from the same material as an induction kit. Smooth the air box on the inside for better air flow, maybe drill some holes in the bottom half of the air box. This will give an induction kit noise, whilst keeping the standard look of the engine bay and let more air in so as some more power.
